# usage


## adding notes

to add note to a specified notebook, run this:
```bash
makenote [-t <notebook_name>] <note_text>
```

in which note text is the note you want to be added.

for example:
```bash
makenote I am reading page 754 of the book
```

if you run this tool with no text, it will get note text from a simple prompt editor. write your text and then hit `Alt+Enter` or `ctrl+D`.

```
$ makenote

it was a great day.
I had a pizza with my friend. (ctrl+D)

1728 - Tue, 10 Bah 1402 18:55:25 - journals - note saved!
```

if you do not specify notebook name, then note will be stored in default notebook which is `journals`. you can change it in config file.



## creating notebooks

this tool uses different notebooks for storing notes.  
for example you can classify your notes in "journals", "tasks", "work", etc.

to create a notebook, run this:
```bash
makenote --create <notebook_name>
```
in which `<notebook_name>` is the name of notebook you want to be created.

## listing notebooks

to get a list of notebooks you have created, run this:
```bash
makenote --list
```

## showing records

to see the notes you have stored in a notebook, run this:
```bash
makenote --show
```

if you do not specify notebook name, the default notebook will be shown. you can specify it with `-t` switch:

```bash
makenote --show -t <notebook>
```

## getting help

run command below to get a list of switches:

```bash
makenote -h
```

# configuration

a file named `makenote.conf` is copied into makenote install dir. you can edit this file to get what you want.

# export all notes
database files are stored in path specified in config file. which by default is below:

`~/.local/share/makenote/databases/`

for backing notes up, just copy the files somewhere safe.

for restoring, just copy the database into the database path again.
